I do like the little flourish it has in the current version. Ita like Murray Gold saying "ta-da"
Funny because he despised the middle 8
3:28 is unbeatable
the middle 8 is always the best part of any doctor who theme :D

Was 1:06 used in Trial of a Time Lord?
@@EWSTrains yes
Was there a middle 8 for the theme in the 2006 concert Doctor Who: A Celebration?
@@thegooner-49 Uh I'm not sure, but I haven't even heard of it 😅
Murray Golds versions from 03:01 - 03:39 sound like a super heroes theme and I love it. This is when I started watching Doctor Who.
2008s is literally peak. its so majestic and powerful! the drums give it so much momentum
The bridge is always so epic
Is it me or has Middle 8 just got better in each theme over time
Not really
@@dylanrinker6831Yeah, it's more like a roller coaster
It’s you, I like it when it had a creepy feeling at the beginning rather than sounding like the superman theme
Nothing tops Delia's arrangement, so whilst it probably isn't "just you", I wouldn't agree.
and then died at 13s theme then got better
12th doctor's one makes me get up and dance ngl
It's a shame it was never in an episode
Welp, Shalka has somehow escaped the confines of the Unbound Universe now.
I’m just gonna say it. Edge of Time at 6:41 is one of my new favorite themes, just in general. And the Middle Eight is no small part of why.
Wow, the Peter Capaldi one is actually really cool. Too bad we never got to hear it!
Makes me wonder if it was a fan creation.
@@NobodyYouKnow01no, it's in series 8 soundtrack
Brilliant video. My favourite Doctor Who middle 8 has to be Series 4's
3:02 from there onwards I begin to cry
omg me too
me too fam, the waterworks could put the niagara falls to shame
You mean 3:40 is unbeatable
Nice i love doctor who
Love the 7th dr big finish middle 8, also the 8th dr one
7 had a very underrated theme, very much my era of childhood. Somehow darker and more alien than anything that came before.
Where did you get the impressive quality graphic at 1:30 ?
Google lol
Ngl i think the 2024 theme is the best weve ever gotten tbh, its just screams doctor who and its 60+ years of history
Have there been any notable versions of the theme that didn't contain a middle 8?
Interesting question actually. You have the "Opening Theme" variations of most of these, but these are merely just 40 seconds long. The Series 1 Closing theme does not contain a Middle 8, nor does the Nicholas Briggs Big Finish theme. There are also variants of the Series 11 closing theme that don't have a middle 8 either.
Did the decorating a sign the doctor who
Yo, you forgot that Series 12 & Series 13 had unique variations of the middle eight!
Demons of the Punjab
@@Jacx_DoctorWho Ascension of the Cybermen end credits on the Series 12 soundtrack
Everyone talks about the 80s and tennants but no one talks about how epic the 2010 matt smith middle 8 is
nobody talks about 2014's middle 8. That along with War Doctor and 7th Doctor version 2 are probably my favorites
@@Jacx_DoctorWho true
GIVE IT MORE LIKES!!!!!!!
YESSS!!!!! GIVE IT MORE!!!
Doctor who proms 2010 is the best tho
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Why does the Edge of Time version sound like Stargate...
You missed out Tom's.
Troughton, Pertwee and Baker had the same theme. It was used from 1966 to 1979. (Yes, I used a stereo remix variant, so it may sound a little off)
Are some of these Big Finish versions?
yep
I’ve just started to watch new who and was wondering when they started incorporating the middle 8, three episodes in. Nothing yet.
Peter Howell’s 5th Doctor version is my favourite.
The Middle 8 doesn't appear until Series 1's Christmas Specials: The Christmas Invasion. It appears in the end credits.
You missed the Nicholas Briggs theme for McGann
Honestly, that theme is sh!t
@@Jacx_DoctorWho 😂 l like it, but fair dos
@@DonNeutron004 I mean it's not bad, but it also isn't that good. It's just really Derbyshire's theme put in cup and someone shook the hell out of it
@@Jacx_DoctorWho that’s actually a fantastic description 😭😭
What about Doctor who the edge of reality?
Doesn't have a theme. The only games that have one are The Edge of Time and The Lonely Assassins.
EDIT: Sorry, the Edge of Reality actually has the same theme as the Lonely Assassins.
@@Jacx_DoctorWhoDalek Attack and Destiny of the Doctors
Could you make the video again but this time include the entire theme with the middle 8?
Search in UA-cam for "Doctor Who Theme Compendium: 70+ themes" by Web of Time
@@Jacx_DoctorWho yeah i watched that already after I commented lol
I love these themes, but my ears are starting to hurt from all the higher pitched ones 😂
Rik ed morti sigle 😂😂😂😂😂
